Yesterday was a huge day for PS3 owners. We were finally able to get a long, good look at God of War III, as well as hear all about how the game will play. Great news… if you like God of War. I, for one, never really cared for the series. They’re well-made games and all, but the amount of racism against skeletons they contain is just too much for my delicate sensibilities.

That doesn’t mean that yesterday wasn’t still a huge day for me and my PS3. Over on the official PlayStation blog, we got a post by the creator of Noby Noby Boy, a PSN game that looks to be everything that God of War III isn’t: low-tech, funny, and most of all, surreal. Where God of War III is a game that can easily be described as “S’more God of War,” Noby Noby Boy is apparently “a game that cannot be expressed by words in the first place,” “an undefined and ambitious game” that will leave players saying, “I don’t know why, but it’s somehow interesting. I can’t stop playing.”

The true sign of a console’s maturity is how many types of gamers it caters to, and if you ask me, having Noby Noby Boy and God of War III on the same console is about as mature as you can get. You can read more of Keita Takahashi’s thoughts on his game here, but be prepared to not know what the hell he’s talking about.
